♠AQx
♥AK
♦AK9x
♣AQxx


all vul, dealer west

1♣-ps-1♦!-1♥!
X!-2♦-ps-??


1♦= ♥
1♥= take out (normally ♠+♦)
X= 3 hearts.
if you try a cue partner is rebidding diamonds.

------------

Now you are at it try this one from the same match

♠AKQ
♥AK9x
♦AQJxx
♣x


ps-ps-2♥!-X
ps-4♠-ps-4NT
ps-5♣-ps-??


2♥!= hearts and a minor weak

5♣= 1 ace

if you try 5NT partner has no kings.

1. I take it RHO replying (or LHO opening lol) is some sort of joke. Anyway, 3NT for me.

2. Since I know he has no kings, 6♠.

although 3NT could easily be an overbid.

It could be too high, possibly (not likely IMO). But it's definitely not an overbid.
Please let me know about any questions or interest or bug reports about GIB.

partner had a perfect

♠xx
♥108xx
♦108xxxx
♣x


at the other table the bidding went


2♣-X-ps-3♣
ps-ps-3♦-ps
6♦

wich strikes me as a bit insane, althou with the fineses maybe being onside this is another problem. Opponents alerted me that black kings weren't behaving and I failed to reach slam due to that :)
